I have residency in Reno NV where I own property, My AK's are legal there...but I haven't started to build any structures on the property yet...meanwhile I'm staying in Truckee, CA with my GF...where my Ak's are not legal. So to stay legal I need to keep my Ak's in NV. See why I want to do this?

PVC, I thought of that, but was hoping there was some sort of larger type of box that could hold everything. But it looks like the PVC would be the best.
Any other suggestions would be nice. Perhaps I can submerge a plastic 55 gal drum with sealing lid with the PVC tubes inside? or would the drum just fill with water?

Fill the drum with synthetic automatic transmission fluid. I used to bury single handguns in other countries so I'd have one when I needed one abroad.I either forgot exactly where some of them were or somebody found some of them.

Fill the drum with synthetic automatic transmission fluid. I used to bury single handguns in other countries so I'd have one when I needed one abroad.I either forgot exactly where some of them were or somebody found some of them.

And the lesson here is....I...guess....fill the drum with synthetic automatic transmission fluid, but then mark the site of your handgun burial with one of those traffic control sawhorses with the flashing yellow light on the top?

Actually for handgun burial, I'd bet a standard "army surplus" ammo can would do. The cans are readily available, sturdy, have a waterproof seal built into the lid, and can be covered with grease on the outside to protect the can from rust. If the burial site is in a wooded area, or in some trackless field, a handheld GPS to get the exact satellite coordinates might help to find it later.

And "army surplus" can mean all KINDS of heavy duty sealable containers:

If it were me I would either keep the guns well hidden but nearby until I was able to move, or store them at a secure site until the move. Hiding something out in the wilds just seems too risky.

You wouldnt be able to be nearby to monitor the area in case something happened. Someone might see you headed out with a length of PVC pipe and coming back without it. You might forget the location. etc etc etc.

My uncle used to have a fake floor in one of his kids' rooms. It opened up into a concrete and steel bunker that would have held a couple hundred long arms easily as well as quite a bit of ammo. He didnt use it for guns however.

I was always amazed that no matter where he was in his house, my uncle could arm himself in a matter of seconds, many times without even having to take a step.

If you go the bury route don't forget to salt the area. You don't want some old lady with a metal detector stumbling on it.
A few years ago Soldier Of Fortune ran a article on this. They advised taking small sections of Rebar, soaking them in urine ( this helps the metal breakdown and will leave a larger signiture on a metal detector ) and burying them in the same area.

Just a suggestion. Get yourself a vacuum sealer. The kind for food storage. They should come with long rolls of storage bags. You can make them to whatever length you desire. When used in conjunction with other rust prevention it should be fool proof. I believe the unit goes for about 40 bucks on sale. I have one but have never contemplated such a use for it till now. Just remember to wrap whatever in something to keep sharp edges from making punctures. Then use your pipes for security from mechanical damage. Another question is it legal to bury your guns? They would not be locked up so what are the laws concerning this in your area? Weigh the possibilities? Oh oh paranoia setting in. Where is my Thorazine?

Thundergod, no he wasnt a Viking, just a crazy redneck who was into various "weeds". Thats what he stored in his "vault".

Come to think of it he did look like a Viking. He was 6 foot tall, LONG blonde hair, long blonde beard, and about 400 pounds. In his heyday had a rep as one of the meanest people you ever didnt want to meet. Even the cops were afraid of him.

He used to hunt squirrel with a double barrel 10 guage shotgun. He would get high smoking and have me and my brother go and retreive the dead squirrels. Lots of fun.
